The school celebrated grandparents day and its book week parade on the same day, on a sunny September 6.
Students and teachers dressed up as their favourite characters, and embraced this year's book week theme Read, Grow, Inspire.
The teachers embraced the growth element by dressing as farmers and primary producers, which also payed homage to sustainability.
During the parade, students danced and walked around the hall in their costumes, waving to grandparents, parents and loved ones.
They also got in the groove and performed a flash mob for everyone.

"This is one of the best days we have all year," said assistant principal Suzanne Capps.
"It's so nice to be back here," said grandmother Trish Hesseling.
Hill Top Public School Principal Mark Gardiner said it was a great way to bring everyone together.
"We know we're successful when the community is engaging with learning," he said.
"I'm really proud of our relationship the school has with the Hill Top community."
Everyone also enjoyed a sausage sizzle, refreshments and cupcakes to fundraise for the Year 6 farewell.
Students then showed their loved ones around their classrooms and enjoyed the book fair.
